Preparation

  1. Mix all the marinade ingredients with a whisk.
  2. Pour the marinade on the veal strips and let them marinate for 30 minutes.
  3. Remove the veal strips from the marinade and thread them on 16 to 20 wooden skewers.
  4. Place the skewers on a cookie sheet on the grill and cook them under the top element at maximum heat (broil) until the internal temperature reaches 66°C (150°F) – (this will take about 1 to 2 minutes per side) or on the barbecue preheated to medium-high.
  5. To prepare the guacamole, place the avocados in a bowl and mash with a fork until smooth. Add the lemon juice, cumin and salt. Mix well. Adjust the seasoning as needed.
  6. To make the pepper mousse, purée the grilled peppers* with a blender. Add the cheese, garlic and salt. Mix well. Adjust the seasoning as needed.
  7. Using a pastry bag, fill the glasses with guacamole and then the grilled pepper mousse, add the topping and finish with a satay grilled veal brochette.

* If you grill the peppers yourself, make sure to remove the skin before puréing them.
